Dark Court

~Desire leaves her bound to a demon. Love will unlock a destiny.~In Shumei's world, her black hair marks her as being touched by magic and thereby vulnerable to its corruption. Shunned by her village, she and her family scrape by selling herbal remedies, but a mysterious epidemic has depleted her stores, and she is forced to leave the protection of town to replenish them.With only moonlight to guide her, Shumei does what she can to evade the demons known to stalk the woods, but she finds herself confronted by an alluring man with a wicked smile and desolate eyes-one who somehow knows her deepest, darkest desires…and whose depraved hunger betrays his demonic nature.What begins as a moment of reckless abandon ends up changing the course of her life when the cold-hearted incubus magically attaches himself to her, neither of them anticipating how their intense and clandestine relationship will lead to far more than pleasure.♥♥♥Caught in the Devil's Hand is a full-length fantasy romance featuring demons, awakened magic powers, and a steamy romance between an incubus and the young woman who can't help wanting him.

Note that while the relationship ends in an HEA, the story ends in a cliffhanger. Ruby Duvall began writing out of spite for otherwise wonderfully written romances that nevertheless didn't quite satisfy. Her addiction to the happily-ever-after began as a teenager, and she wrote her first story at fifteen before moving on to fanfiction and then original fiction. Though she grew up in the Midwest, she now lives with her husband and two children in Seattle. When she's not writing, she reads, enjoys video games, and bakes. The Dark Court will rule again.
